Patent

CA 2355708

The invention concerns an actuator comprising a sliding sleeve (1) and a piston (2) axially mobile in said sleeve, said piston comprising a plurality of piezoelectric sections made of multilayer material, control means for applying on said sections control voltages for expanding said sections so that they are locked relative to the sliding sleeve and extend other sections inside said sleeve, said expansions and extensions being controlled by said control means according to the sequences moving the piston in said sleeve. The invention is characterised in that the control means are capable of applying to each of the sections a voltage which shortens said section and locks it in the sliding sleeve and an inverse voltage which releases said section relative to said sleeve and extends it therein, one and the other of said voltages being applied successively to said section during a sequence displacing the piston, each section being thus used both for locking and extending during such a sequence.

Actionneur comportant une chemise de coulissement (1) et un piston (2) apte à se déplacer axialement dans ladite chemise, ledit piston comportant une pluralité de tronçons successifs en matériau multicouches piezo électriques, des moyens de commande étant aptes à appliquer sur lesdits tronçons de tensions de commande pour dilater des tronçons de façon à ce qu'ils se bloquent par rapport à la chemise de coulissement et allonger d'autres tronçons à l'intérieur de ladite chemise, ces dilatations et allongements étant conunandés par lesdits moyens de commande selon des séquences déplaçant le piston dans ladite chemise, caractérisé en ce que les moyens de commande sont aptes à appliquer à chacun des tronçons une tension qui raccourcit ledit tronçon et le bloque dans la chemise de coulissement et une tension inverse qui libère ledit tronçon par rapport à ladite chemise et qui l'allonge dans celle-ci, l'une et l'autre de ces deux tensions étant successivement appliquées audit tronçon lors d'une séquence de déplacement du piston, chaque tronçon étant ainsi utilisé en blocage et en allongement lors d'une telle séquence.
